to:

* Music/MikeOldfield has recorded many albums, but is mostly known for ''Music/TubularBells'' ''Music/TubularBells'', to the point where Creator/VirginRecords constantly pestered him about recording a sequel. Oldfield would leave the label in the early '90s partly because of that, not putting out ''Music/TubularBellsII'' until after he signed a deal with WEA and Creator/RepriseRecords.

* For many years, Creator/PhilippaGregory was known mostly for writing ''Literature/TheOtherBoleynGirl'' and the rest of the ''Tudor Court'' series, though especially ''The Other Boleyn Girl''. Gregory had actually written a dozen novels before ''The Other Boleyn Girl'' that were quite successful (''A Respectable Trade'' even got a film adaptation in 1998), but her ''Tudor'' novels overshadowed them for much of the 2000s, to the point that reprintings of her older works came with "From the author of ''The Other Boleyn Girl''" stamped on the covers. She finally managed to move past this in the 2010s to a degree, becoming better known for the ''[[Literature/TheCousinsWarSeries Cousins' War]]'' series. These days, Gregory is strongly associated with both her Tudor novels and her Wars of the Roses novels. It probably helps that they've been merged into a single series, containing fifteen books in total.

* Creator/NeilGaiman and ''ComicBook/TheSandman1989''.

to:

* At least for comics, Creator/NeilGaiman is almost always associated with ''ComicBook/{{The Sandman|1989}}''. It's his longest comics work, it was critically and ''ComicBook/TheSandman1989''.commercially successful, it became the flagship title for DC's Vertigo imprint and it was a rare example of a company-owned series that ended when the creative team brought it to a conclusion, rather than being cancelled due to falling sales or handed over to new work-for-hire creators. But it's far from his only comics work.
** In 2022, when Gaiman and Mark Buckingham returned to Marvel to finish their 1990s series ''ComicBook/MiraclemanTheSilverAge'', media attention was still almost entirely focused on the TV series adaptations of Gaiman's Sandman and ''Series/GoodOmens'' instead.
